- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5COMPLETE WASTE OF 4 HOURS... This must be the World Record for the "Longuest Time to say something that could fit on ONE page...": 1) Make Lists of 250 people you know, 2) Divide them in A/B/C columns according to quality, 3) Put relationships first... Also maybe the worst use EVER of Storytelling, instead of telling stories to ILLUSTRATE or TEACH with IMPACT... telling the Story of Suzie and Sheila-Marie learning and drinking coffee and talking...
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book is very inspiring and based on the universal truth Of putting others first and being generous. It takes away the discomfort of making a sales and pushing any product or service into anyone. Looking forward to put everything I learned into practice.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5You must get past the juvenile story-writing style, because it's an excellent basic layout, for all people on all levels! Highly recommend to take action notes in each chapter that they have "Suzie" do, and mirror it! I will be going back through and doing the same thing, myself! EXCELLENT
